Definitions
- the disclosed invention relates to a filter in general and, in particular, to a filter to minimize small signal fluctuations while reacting quickly to larger signal fluctuations.
- a filter may suppress noise existing on a signal or may average an oscillating or unsteady signal or may do both simultaneously.
- Such a filter may be implemented in software where, for example, portions of a signal that has been converted to digital information may be manipulated by way of instructions executed by a processor.
- Such a filter may alternately be implemented in hardware that may, for example, manipulate an analog signal carrying analog or digital information directly.
- the filtered signal may be converted into digital information after passing through and being manipulated by a hardware filter.
- undesirable noise is often generated by a sensor or its wiring that skews the value read from the actually sensed value.
- undesirable signal distortion can result from the vibration of mechanical sensors or from systems that operate unsteadily.
- unsteady piston velocity is generally encountered in connection with a piston engine that moves at varying speeds in its normal travel or in an engine wherein every combustion event is different causing the engine to operate with some irregularity in speed or rpm from cycle to cycle. It is thus often desirable to apply a filter to such a signal to remove forms of distortion including variations caused by vibration or to convert unsteady signals to steady signals.
- the present invention is directed to a dynamic filter that alters the amount of filtering provided dependent upon a magnitude of change occurring in a signal.
- the dynamic filter may be applied to an input signal received at a data acquisition unit or another value received by or determined by the data acquisition unit.
- the term "determined value" is meant to include any value, current or previous, raw or filtered, unprocessed or processed and may include, for example, sensed signals and values, and values determined otherwise such as by calculation by a data acquisition unit, an engine control unit, or another device.
- the dynamic filter minimizes small signal fluctuations while reacting quickly to larger signal fluctuations.
- the dynamic filter determines a relative magnitude of change from a filtered value or a previous determined value that may be associated with a signal from a sensor to a current value that may be associated with the signal from the sensor and provides a filtered value nearer the current value when the relative magnitude of change is great and nearer the previous filtered value or previous determined value when the magnitude of change is less.
- the present invention is also directed to a method of dynamically filtering a signal. That method includes combining a portion of a previously determined value that may be associated with a signal with a portion of a currently determined value that may be associated with the signal, the portions varying dependent on a magnitude of change between the previously determined value and the currently determined value.
- a filtered value includes a portion of a previously determined value and a portion of a currently determined value, the portions of the previously determined value and the currently determined value varying dependent on a magnitude in change between the previously determined value and the currently determined value such that the filtered value is biased toward the previously determined value when the magnitude of change is small and the filtered value is biased more toward the currently determined value when the magnitude of change is larger.
- a filter in another embodiment, includes a processor executing instructions that cause the processor to receive a current value, retain a previous value, and create a filtered value including a portion of the current value and a portion of the previous value.
- the portions of the previous value and the current value furthermore vary dependent on a magnitude of change between the previous value and the current value such that the filtered value is biased toward the previous value when the magnitude of change is small and the filtered value is biased more toward the current value when the magnitude of change is larger.
- a filter in yet another embodiment, includes a magnitude of change module that determines a magnitude of change from a previously determined value to a currently determined value, a dynamic filter variable module that relates the magnitude of change to a relative value, and a filter value module that applies the relative magnitude of change to the magnitude of change and combines the result with the previously determined value to arrive at a filtered value, wherein the filtered value is biased toward the previously determined value when the magnitude of change is small and the filtered value is biased more toward the currently determined value when the magnitude of change is larger.
- An embodiment of a method of filtering a value includes combining a portion of a previously determined value with a portion of a currently determined value, the portions of the previously determined value and the currently determined value varying dependent on a magnitude of change between the previously determined value and the currently determined value such that the filtered value is biased toward the previously determined value when the magnitude of change is small and biased more toward the currently determined value when the magnitude of change is larger.
- a computer readable medium has instructions stored thereon. When the instructions are executed by a processor, they cause the processor to receive a current value, retain a previous value, and create a filtered value including a portion of the current value and a portion of the previous value. The portions of the previous value and the current value furthermore vary dependent on a magnitude in change between the previous value and the current value such that the filtered value is biased toward the previous value when the magnitude of change is small and biased more toward the current value when the magnitude of change is larger.
- the dynamic filter provides a method and apparatus for altering the amount of filtering provided dependent upon a magnitude of change occurring in a filtered signal.
- Figure 1 illustrates an embodiment of a dynamic filter
- Figure 2 illustrates an embodiment of a method of dynamically filtering a signal
- Figure 3 illustrates an embodiment of an engine control system in which the dynamic filter may be employed.
- a certain type of filter operates by averaging a plurality of values to arrive at a filtered value. For example, when a value is to be filtered, but not in real time, a value may be averaged with a number of values preceding that value and the same number of values following that value. Thus, for example, a five-point filtered average value may be equal to a sensed value added to two sensed values immediately preceding the sensed value and two sensed values immediately following the sensed value and the total may be divided by the number of sensed values summed, five in that example.
- a filtered average value When operating in real-time, a filtered average value may be equal to a current value added to a plurality of previously determined values.
- a four-point real-time filtered average value may be equal to the sum of a current sensed value and three sensed values determined just prior to that current sensed value divided by four. It should be recognized, however, that such a four-point real-time filtered average will require the receipt of four sensed values before the filter becomes fully effective.
- a transition from one throttle position to another may include the following sensed throttle position values: 23%, 22%, 23%, 21%, 35%, 34%, 35%, and 36%.
- the 23%, 22%, 23%, 21% sensed values may correspond to a constant throttle position so that filtering may be beneficial to minimize fluctuations due to vibration and the 35% sensed value may be an actual change in throttle position made by an operator wishing to change the load on the engine, with the 34%, 35%, and 36% sensed values corresponding to a throttle position maintained at approximately 35%.
- the filtered value when the 21% position was sensed would be 23% + 22% + 23% + 21% / 4, which is equal to 22.25%; the filtered value when the first 35% position was sensed would be 22% + 23% + 21% + 35% / 4, which is equal to 25.25%; the filtered value when the 34% position was sensed would be 23% + 21% + 35% + 34% / 4, which is equal to 28.25%; the filtered value when the second 35% position was sensed would be 21% + 35% + 34% + 35% / 4, which is equal to 31.25%; and the filtered value when the 36% position was sensed would be 35% + 34% + 35% + 36% / 4, which is equal to 35%.
- Another type of filter operates by combining a portion of a current signal value with a portion of a previous filtered signal value.
- the portions of the current signal value and the previous filtered signal value may be determined by a filter constant.
- Such a filter may use a single value that is representative of one or more previous values. Where a single previous filtered value is used to represent multiple previous values, that single previous filtered value may be an average of the previous values or may weight those values as desired.
- the previous filtered value By retaining the previous filtered value, only a single historic value need be retained and yet the previous filtered value may include some portion of some or all previously determined values with greater weight on recently determined values and little weight on earlier determined values. That filtered value may thus represent the last sensed value and, to a successively lesser extent, a series of values preceding the last sensed value.
- a filtered value that includes a portion of a previous filtered value and a portion of a current value may be determined by multiplying a filter constant by the difference between the previous filtered value and the current input value and adding the previous filtered value to the result, as illustrated in Equation 1.
- FVc FVp + FC (Vc - FVp) wherein: FVc is the current filtered value; FVp is the previous filtered value; FC is the filter constant; and Vc is the currently determined value.
- the filter constant is normally assigned a value within the range from zero to one, wherein a value of zero provides a current filtered value equal to the previous filtered value and a value of one provides a current filtered value equal to the currently determined value. It should be noted that the result of Equation 1 with those limits on the filter constant includes a portion from zero to one of the previous filtered value and a portion from zero to one of the current value with the total of the portions of the previous filtered value and the current filtered value equaling one.
- a filter constant value of 0.5 will therefore provide equal weighting between the previous filtered value and the current determined value with values between 0.0 and 0.5 being weighted more heavily toward the previous filtered value and values between 0.5 and 1.0 being more heavily weighted toward the currently determined value.
- Equation 1 may alternately be represented in various ways including a representation in which a filter constant having a value of zero provides the currently determined value and a filter constant having a value of one provides the previous filtered value, as illustrated in Equation 2.
- FVc Vc + FC (FVp - Vc).
- the filter of either Equation 1 or 2 generally beneficially reduces the effect of small changes in a signal.
- Those changes may be caused, for example, by vibration or unsteady operation.
- an operator of the vehicle may maintain a constant throttle position.
- the sensed position of the throttle as transmitted to an engine control unit may vary over a small range with changes indicated at the engine control unit in nearly every sample of the sensed throttle position, as seen in connection with the throttle position example provided in connection with the averaging filter above. If those nearly continuously indicated changes in position were utilized by the engine control unit to vary the level of engine operation, increases and decreases would be made to the engine operating level with nearly every control signal transferred to the signal.
- the amount of fuel and the ignition timing provided to the engine might vary continuously due to fluctuations in the sensed throttle position when the operator of the vehicle desired steady-state engine operation. It is therefore desirable to filter certain sensed signals such as throttle position to minimize fluctuations due to noise and thus provide desired operation. It may also be beneficial to minimize signal noise for other reasons including, in the example of maintaining an engine at a steady operating level, reducing engine vibration that may result from the improved steady-state operation. It should be noted that signal variations may also be caused by various signal fluctuations including electromagnetic noise. Electromagnetic noise is commonly present in signals that are transmitted electrically and may be generated in many ways including routing sensor wiring around an internal combustion engine. Where such noise is present in a signal, additional filtering, such as that performed by low-pass, high-pass, or band-pass filters may be applied in addition to the types of filtering described herein.
- the dynamic filter reduces the effect of low level signal fluctuations such as noise and irregularities on the signal or value emanating from the filter, while minimizing or eliminating the effect of the filter on the signal or value emanating from the filter when a significant change in the received signal or value occurs.
- Figure 1 illustrates an embodiment of a dynamic filter 100 that may be used to have a proportionately large filtering effect on a small change in a signal and a proportionately small filtering effect on a larger change in the signal.
- the dynamic filter 100 includes a magnitude of change module 102, a dynamic filter variable module 104, and a filter value module 106.
- the magnitude of change module 102 calculates a magnitude that a value or signal has changed since a previous time that the value was determined or the signal was received.
- the time between receipt of two consecutive values or signals may be referred to as an interval.
- That signal or value may be a signal or value transmitted from a sensor to a processing unit and read by the processing unit or may be a value calculated by the processing unit or another device.
- the change may be a difference between a current reading of the sensed value and the last reading of the sensed value. Alternately, the change may be a difference between a current reading and one or more previous readings other than or including the last reading.
- the calculation of the magnitude of change may be represented by Vc - Vp where Vc is the current value and Vp is a previous value such as the previously calculated filter value.
- the resulting magnitude of change may, for example, be represented in units of the sensed value such as degrees Kelvin where the sensor is sensing and transmitting a signal or value representative of temperature or in percentage where sensor values are converted to percent such as in connection with a throttle position sensor.
- the absolute value of the magnitude of change may furthermore be utilized when the magnitude of change is calculated by subtracting, for example, the previous value from the current value to assure that the magnitude of change is a positive value.
- the dynamic filter variable module 104 determines a value for a dynamic filter variable using the magnitude of change.
- the dynamic filter variable may be viewed as taking the place of the filter constant utilized in Equations 1 and 2.
- the dynamic filter variable may include a dynamic multiplier to be multiplied by a relative magnitude of change in the sensed value.
- a filter constant may be added to or subtracted from the dynamic filter variable where, for example, a shift toward the currently sensed value and away from the previously sensed value is desired.
- the relative magnitude of change may be calculated by taking the absolute value of the magnitude of change and dividing that by a value to which the magnitude of change is desired to be related.
- That relative value used as a denominator may include, for example, the currently determined value, the previously determined value, the previous filtered value, the greater or lesser of the currently determined value and the previously determined value, the greater or lesser of the currently determined value and the previous filtered value, the range of values that may be sensed by the sensor, or a range of values that are of interest.
- the sensed value is throttle position and the range is 0-100%
- the relative value may be the full range of 100% to give equal effect to changes throughout the range.
- the current or previous input value may be utilized as the relative value in place of the range when, for example, changes in the low end of the range are desired to be given greater effect than changes in the high end of the range.
- the lesser of the currently sensed input value and the previous filtered value is used as the relative value.
- a change from 50% to 75% would provide a relative value of 50% (
- 75% - 50% I / 50% 50%) and a change from 75% to 50% would provide a relative value of 50% (
- / 50% 50%).
- a filter utilizing that method may thus provide the same degree of filtering for signals that are increasing and signals that are decreasing.
- calculations using both the previous filtered value and the currently determined input value may be made and the lesser or greater quotient may be selected as desired.
- the dynamic filter variable may be expressed as a dynamic multiplier multiplied by the absolute value of the magnitude of change and divided by the relative value, which may be an absolute value of the relative value, with a constant value added to or subtracted from the product if desired.
- the dynamic filter variable will be expressed by Equation 3. Dynamic Filter Variable Equation 3:
- DF [M (
- DF the dynamic filter variable
- M the dynamic multiplier and will have a value of 4.0 in the following examples but may have another value if desired
- Vc is the currently determined input value
- FVp is the previous filtered value
- FC is the filter constant value that may be added or subtracted to arrive at the dynamic filter variable if desired and will have a value of 0.2 in the following examples.
- the dynamic multiplier may be viewed as increasing the significance of the change between the previous filtered value and the currently determined input value when the dynamic multiplier is set greater than one and decreasing the significance of the change between the previous filtered value and the currently determined input value when the dynamic multiplier is set less than one.
- the dynamic multiplier may be set to 1.0 or may not be utilized.
- the filter constant may be viewed as a limit on the maximum amount of filtering that may occur in the filter.
- the filter constant may be utilized to prevent the dynamic filter variable from reaching zero. By doing so, the currently determined input value will play at least some part in the determination of the filtered value.
- the dynamic filter variable Using the sample values, where a small change occurs, such as where the currently determined value is 50% and the previous filtered value is 51%, the dynamic filter variable will be equal to 4.0 (
- the dynamic filter variable may furthermore be limited to a maximum of, for example, 1.0, to prevent the filtered value resulting from the filter value module 106 discussed in more detail below from exceeding the currently determined input value, and thereby eliminating overshoot.
- the dynamic filter variable may be limited to a minimum value of, for example, 0.0. That may furthermore cause the filter to disregard changes in the input signal that are less than a threshold value.
- the dynamic filter variable increases as the magnitude of change between the previously determined input value and the currently determined input value increases. Furthermore, as the dynamic filter variable increases, the filter value resulting from the dynamic filter module 106 becomes weighted more toward the currently determined input value and away from the previous filtered value or previously determined input value, thereby reducing the amount of filtering occurring when the change is greater. Conversely, as the dynamic filter variable decreases, the filter value becomes weighted more toward the previous filtered value or previously determined value and away from the currently determined value, thereby increasing the amount of filtering occurring.
- the filter value module 106 may be utilized to determine a filtered value based on the dynamic filter variable. That filter value may furthermore be expressed as shown in Equation 4.
- FVc FVp + DF (Vc - FVp) where: FVc is the current filtered value; FVp is the previous filtered value; DF is the dynamic filter variable calculated in Equation 3; and Vc is the currently determined input value. It should be noted that the previously determined input value Vp may be substituted for the previous filtered value FVp in Equation 4.
- the dynamic filter variable may be limited to a value in a range from zero to one, wherein a value of zero provides a current filtered value (FVc) equal to the previous filtered value and a value of one provides a filtered value equal to the currently determined input value, with a filter variable value between zero and one providing a filtered value that is a portion of each of the previous filtered value and the currently determined input value.
- FVc current filtered value
- a filter variable value between zero and one providing a filtered value that is a portion of each of the previous filtered value and the currently determined input value.
- a dynamic filter value of zero would be equal to the previous filtered value or another previous value utilized and may not include any part of the currently determined input value.
- a dynamic filter value of one would be equal to the currently determined input value and may not include any part of the previous filtered value or other previous value utilized.
- a clamp or limit of 1.0 may be utilized to limit the dynamic filter variable to 1.0, rather than permitting the dynamic filter variable to reach 4.2.
- a dynamic filter variable value of 1.0 causes the current filtered value resulting from the filtering process to be equal to the currently determined input value so that the output of a dynamic filter 100 utilizing Dynamic Filter Variable Equation 3 with a currently determined value of 50%, a previous filtered value of 100%, and a clamp at 1.0 would be 50%, which is the same as the 50% currently determined input value in that example.
- such a dynamic filter variable limit would cause a value of zero to provide a current filtered value equal to the previously determined input value and a value of one provides a filtered value equal to the currently determined input value, with a filter variable value between zero and one providing a filtered value that is a portion of each of the previously determined input value and the currently determined input value.
- the dynamic filter 100 utilizing the process described in connection with Equation 4, thus provides a filtered value that falls on or between the previous filtered value or previously determined input value and the currently determined input value as long as the dynamic filter variable has a value of or between zero and one.
- the current dynamic filter value varies between the previous filtered value or previously determined input value and the currently determined input value dependent of the magnitude of change between the previous filtered value or previously determined input value and currently determined input value.
- a dynamic filter variable that approaches zero provides a filtered value weighted toward the previous filtered value and that a dynamic filter variable that approaches one provides a filtered value that is weighted toward the currently determined input value in Equation 4. It may also be noted that as the relative magnitude of change increases the dynamic filter variable increases, thereby placing more weight on the currently determined input value and less weight on the previous filtered value. By placing more weight on the currently determined input value and less weight on the previous filtered value, the result is that the amount of filtering occurring when larger changes in input or sensed value occur is reduced. Likewise, the amount of filtering occurring when smaller changes in input or sensed value occur is increased to a limit of the filter constant value FC.
- Equation 4 may be reconfigured similarly to the way that Equation 1 was reversed to create Equation 2 if it is desired that a filter constant value of one provides a filtered value equal to the previous filtered value and a filtered constant value of zero provides a filtered value equal to the currently determined input value.
- Figure 2 illustrates an embodiment of a method of dynamically filtering a value 120.
- the value may, for example, be a signal received from a sensor and read periodically at an engine control unit.
- the value may be communicated to a processor in the engine control unit.
- the processor may then filter the value and utilize the filtered value to control the operation of one or more processes.
- a dynamic filter variable is calculated for use in filtering the value, wherein the dynamic filter variable may be determined as described in connection with Equation 3.
- a magnitude of change is determined between a currently determined input value and a previous filtered value.
- the previous filtered value may represent one or more weighted, unweighted, or otherwise averaged values.
- the absolute value of the magnitude of change may be calculated if the magnitude of change is calculated in a way that may result in a negative value.
- the magnitude of change is related to a value as described hereinbefore.
- the relative magnitude of change may be multiplied by a predetermined dynamic multiplier if desired.
- a filter constant may be added to or subtracted from the filter variable if desired.
- the dynamic filter value may be used in a filter such as that discussed in connection with Equation 4 to apportion a filter value between a previous value, such as a previous filtered value or a previously determined input value, and a current value, such as a currently determined input value, wherein a dynamic filter variable having a value of zero provides the full previous value and none of the current value, a filter value having a value of one provides the full current value and none of the previous value, and a dynamic filter variable having a value between zero and one provides a resulting filtered value that is apportioned between the previous and current values.
- the dynamic filter variable is utilized in a filter such as the filter discussed in connection with Equation 4 to determine a filtered value.
- the filtered value may then be used to control one or more processes at 134.
- the dynamic filter variable may be limited to a range of zero to one and may utilize a range other than zero to one.
- the method of dynamically filtering a signal 120 may then be repeated for each determined value input into the filter.
- the dynamic filter may included an article of manufacture that includes a computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions which, when executed by the processor cause the processor to dynamically filter a signal as described herein.
- the computer readable medium may include instructions to cause a processor to receive one or more values from a sensor.
- the values determined to be acted upon by the processor may include a stream of values that are filtered as they are received, operating on each currently sensed input value as it is received and retaining one or more previous filtered values or previously determined input values.
- the computer readable medium may further include instructions to cause a processor to create a filtered value including a portion of the currently determined input value and a portion of the previous filtered value or previously determined input value, the portions of those values dependent on a magnitude in change between the previously value and the current value.

- the engine control system 150 includes an internal combustion engine 172 having a cylinder 174, and a crankshaft 176.
- the cylinder 174 contains a piston 178 having a connecting rod 180 that connects to the crankshaft 176.
- An intake valve 182, an exhaust valve 184 and a spark plug 186 extend into the cylinder 174.
- An air intake control device 188 and a fuel supply control device 204 provide air and fuel to the intake valve 182 and the cylinder 174.
- the air intake control device 188 may include, for example, a butterfly valve 192 or gate valve to control the quantity of combustion air delivered to the engine 172.
